taperlockbushesTaperLock™ Bushes

Fenner® TaperLock™ four hole bush has been tried and tested in over 40 million applications. It is the most successful shaft fixing on the market place today with a full range of both metric and imperial sizes as well as a full range of weld-on hubs, bolt-on hubs and hub adaptors.

  • Ease of installation and removal (on and off in 1 minute) - no skill required.
  • Equivalent to a shrink-on fit when in uniform load applications and thus eliminates the cost of a key.
  • No costly re-boring: full range of both metric and imperial bores available.
  • Saves costs of precision machining shafts.
      • Accommodates wide shaft diameter limits +0.05mm (0.002") to 0.125mm (0.005").
  • Full range of products to accept TaperLock™: -
  • 'V' -Pulleys, Timing and HTD Pulleys, Sprockets, Shaft Couplings, Hubs and Adaptors.
  • Avoids the use of Taper Keys.
  • No protruding bolts, by using hexagon wrenches.
  • No machining of standard shafts required.
  • Compact range of Bushes, 3525, 4030, 4535, 5040, etc. for more compact drives.
  • High grade, close grain grey iron (GG25) material.
  • Tolerates shock loading.
  • Spheroidal Graphite (S.G.) iron construction on some sizes to give increased maximum bores.
  • Keys not required on light/medium duty applications.

Weld-on-hubs

  • Manufactured from steel to provide a convenient means to secure fan rotors, steel pulleys, plate sprockets, impellers etc. to a shaft.
  • Shouldered outer diameter allows for easy location.
  • Taper bored to receive 4 hole TaperLock® bush.
      • Standard 4 hole bush has improved balance at higher speed.
  • Range covers TaperLock™ sizes 1210 to 5040.

Bolt-on-hubs

  • A convenient means to secure fan rotors, steel pulleys, plate sprockets, impellers etc. to a shaft.
  • Taper bored to receive 4 hole TaperLock™ bush.
      • Standard 4 hole bush has improved balance at higher speed.
  • Welding not necessary.
  • Range covers TaperLock™ sizes 1210 to 3040.

Hub adapters

  • For use with parallel bores eliminating the cost of drilling, tapping and taper-boring.
      • Taper bored to receive 4 hole Taper Lock bush.
      • Standard 4 hole bush has improved balance at higher speed.
  • Range covers TaperLock™ sizes 1008 to 4040.Keyed version also available for heavy duty applications
